As much as I'm excited to see the player Hamilton can become for the Flames I would have preferred a 3 year bridge deal that wouldn't see him get anymore money than Brodie.
With a 6 year deal I'm guessing he's going to be making more than Brodie and will be UFA at the end of contract. They are skipping the whole entry level contract, bridge contract and then payday contract model.
I'm still hoping the deal could be around 5.5 AAV... maybe a bit optimistic
